BIOPAC Systems BSLSTMB Product Sheet

BSL STIMULATORS
Modular Stimulators (0-100 V):
BSLSTMB for MP36/36R/35
BSLSTMA for MP30/35/36/36R
See also: HSTM01, ELSTM1, ELSTM2, EL300S and EL400 electrodes.
BSLSTMB
The older "BSLSTM" uses dial reading and a flip range switch. The same guidelines and
Note
cautions described here apply, except when noted.
The BSLSTM Stimulator works in conjunction with the Biopac Student Lab System to allow precise stimulus
pulse outputting. Use the BSLSTM and the BSL PRO to perform a wide array of measurements, such as:
▪
Twitch sub-threshold & threshold
▪
Maximum twitch responses
▪
Single twitch, summation
STIMULATOR PULSE DEFINITIONS

BSLSTMA
▪
Muscle tension/length vs. force
▪
Tetanic contraction
▪
Nerve conduction
The time that the pulse is in the non-zero or active state.
The initial delay from the start of acquisition to the start of the first pulse.
The time between pulses, as measured from the start of one pulse to the start
of the next pulse. This is the inverse of the Pulse rate.
The number of pulses that occur in a one-second interval, expressed in Hz.
The Pulse rate relates to the Pulse period as follows:

Lab set up note
Placing the BSLSTMA/B unit too close to
MP3X hardware can result in data distortion
of the BSLSTMA/B pulse width signal; the
distortion is more apparent at higher sampling
rates.
•
NEVER set the BSLSTMA/B atop an
MP3X
•
Position the BSLSTMA/B away from the
MP3X to reduce the signal distortion
